Friendly staff, good price, easy check in, breakfast and coffee is good.
The staff was very helpful and courteous. The room was what you would expect from a "budget" hotel. It had everything we needed and nothing we didn't. The mini fridge allowed us to keep essentials on hand. The microwave allowed us to cook in the room and save money not having to eat takeout. The absolute best part of our stay was the continental breakfast. The Golden Waffle machine is AMAZING!!!! All the fresh, golden waffles you can eat. I would stay here again just for the waffles! Great stay at a great price.
The staff are friendly and the owners are the best. Nice place to stay on fishing trips.

Weekend Getaway
The lady at the front desk was super sweet! Although were given the wrong room, she fixed and even called us after check to make sure we were happy. Definitely good customer service on her part. There was no breakfast served, that falls on the owners.
Great price, renovated rooms (we went on jan 2025), the rooms are tiny but cozy. The staff is super kind.
Hot water to take a bath, good breakfast :)
Thank you
The room was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and breakfast area was nice. TV noise from a neighboring room was audible throughout the night. AC unit was hard to reach.
